What’s behind the brilliant `Golden Age` on the Met Gala 2022 red carpet?
Is the Met Gala simply a celebration of fashion heritage?
The answer is no.
Met Gala is a fundraising gala for the Costume Institute.
The Met Gala was founded in 1948 by fashion journalist Eleanor Lambert as a fundraiser for the Costume Institute.
However, the transformation of the Met Gala took place in 1972 when Diana Vreeland became an advisor to the Costume Institute.
This transformation attracted many famous people at that time such as Jackie Onassis, Carl Katz, or Tom King.

Night of Remembrance for `King of Chanel` Karl Lagerfeld
Karl Lagerfeld is the main designer of many famous fashion brands such as Chanel, Fendi and his personal fashion brand that he directly produces.
The legacy Karl Lagerfeld left behind for the fashion industry is countless.
Karl Lagerfeld has never disappointed the public in leaving a distinct mark in his appearances.
Before conquering the fashion industry, Karl Lagerfeld in 1955 was a young man pursuing a creative career as Pierre Balmain’s assistant.

He always pursues suit styles with classic designs and simple patterned ties.
After years of working behind the scenes as a collaborator for Chloe or working under Fendi for a series of memorable collections, Karl Lagerfeld often appears in the public eye as part of the show.

In the Fall-Winter 1991 Haute Couture collection, designer Karl Lagerfeld appeared with an iconic look: a classic suit and silver hair tied in a ponytail, but, when combined with large black sunglasses and a fan.

Karl Lagerfeld is a complicated man, which makes wearing the correct dress code `honoring his designs` more difficult for this year’s Met Gala guests.
